"This is a report about the past, but it has to start a conversation about the future." This Manchester Voluntary Sector Assembly event will launch the State of the Manchester VSCE 2021 report, talk about its findings and you will have the chance to discuss with VCSE colleagues what the future could look like and how we can work towards this together.
This one hour Zoom session will give you space to chill out and have a creative play and mess around with whatever art materials you have to hand, even if that is the back of an envelope and a ball point pen.
In the workshop, Gemma will guide you through mindful meditations and simple art making to move from the busyness of the mind to the expansive, restful space of the heart connecting with your creative playful side.
